This theospammer has it so very wrong. Realtime developers spend so very much more time cursing than praising anything.

Wow! I though just a moment I witnessed the creation of a new word there: Theospammer. It completely describes the person writing the silly, inappropriate and mostly, at least to me, very surprising comment above.
Really! I mean I read the theospam about ten times before I realized it really could only be that, and not some very deep thoughtful and witty comment.

Of course Theospammer wasn't a new word at all, apparently I don't read discussion groups enough. Still, what a beautiful word!

Ernest.

Well, I'd never seen the word before either. It's a fairly obvious portmanteau.
